Long-Term Visiting Academic Research Fellowships
The American Antiquarian Society offers long-term visiting academic
research
fellowships tenable for four to twelve months each year. (Short-term fellowships are
available for scholars
holding the Ph.D. and for doctoral candidates engaged in dissertation
research.)
All awards are for a period of residence to
use the AAS library's resources for research and writing.
The following long-term awards are intended for scholars
beyond the
doctorate.
- Hench Post-Dissertation Fellowship: The purpose of the
fellowship is to provide the recipient with time and resources to extend
research and/or to revise the dissertation for publication.
Established as the Mellon Post-Dissertation Fellowship in
1998, the fellowship has been renamed in honor of John B. Hench, who
retires as vice president for collections and programs after
thirty-three years on the staff of the American Antiquarian Society.
The Society welcomes applications from those who have advance book
contracts, as well as those who have not yet made contact with a
publisher.
The
twelve-month stipend for this fellowship is $35,000.
Application deadline: Oct. 15
